INFORMATION
Type	Status mechanic
Usage	Manipulates the status of a player.

Status Effects are a game mechanic that can affect players in several ways, either helping or hindering them.

Overview

Status Effects are shown through icons on the bottom-left corner of the players screen, above their health bar if it is visible. They also manipulate a condition of a player, whether it might be beneficial or not.

List of Effects

The subject and name of this article has no proper denomination, and is unofficially titled based on conjecture or references found in-game.

Positive

Name & Icon	Effect	Source
Crouched	Allows the player to move through crawlspaces and move around without alerting Figure. However, it also reduces the player's movement speed.	View the controls of crouching on different devices here.
Speed Boost	Increases the player's movement speed. The amount depends on the source. The effect itself can be stacked, though most speed-boosting items of the same type cannot be repeatedly consumed in quick succession.	Use one of the following items: Vitamins Vial of Starlight, Bottle of Starlight, or Barrel of Starlight. Candies
Starlit I Starlit II Starlit III	Causes the player to emit a yellow light from themselves and have a yellow vignette effect on their vision. The duration, range and brightness of this light and the vignette depends on the effect's level, which itself depends on the source of the effect. If the player already has any level of the Starlit effect, they may not consume any other item that provides the effect for the rest of its duration.	Use the Vial of Starlight, Bottle of Starlight or Barrel of Starlight respectively.
Herb of Viridis	Grants the player a passive healing effect of 5 HP restored per door open.	Use the Green Herb in The Hotel.

Negative

Name & Icon	Effect	Source
Wet	Prevents the Lighter and Flashlight from turning on; passively drains the lighter's fuel. It also makes most electrical light source items more likely to flicker and turn off by themselves.	Be waist-deep in flooded areas in The Mines or touch Dam Seek's slime. The effect will stay for a brief moment after exiting either liquid.

Trivia

• A red line is shown to separate positive and negative status effects. Currently, the wet effect is the only negative effect attainable in-game.
• The Herb of Viridis was the only one that has a status effect icon prior to The Hunt Update, despite speed boosting and crouching itself being added before the Herb of Viridis. The speed boost and crouching icons has been added, with new additional status effects: Starlit I, Starlit II and Starlit III and having the speed boost icon next to it has been introduced.
